All are inclusive of participant resources, pre-session discovery calls, session design and delivery, and post-session leader debriefs.

• Working Genius Workshops: (half/full day, in-person/virtual): Created by leadership expert Patrick Lencioni, The Working Genius model provides instant visibility into team dynamics and a shared language and framework for how successful work gets done, leading to greater cohesion, collaboration, and productivity.

Your team will develop team norms to sustain alignment and momentum. Related topics (see list below) may be incorporated based on your goals.

• Intentional Leadership: We help leaders at every level grow their understanding of intentional leadership, assess their intentional leadership profile, and develop six intentional leader practices that maximize people potential, drive performance results, and sustain momentum. 

• Creating Shared Vision: We guide leaders through a powerful HPI-designed framework and discussion, designed to give insight on common barriers to creating shared vision, increase communication competence with the 4 building blocks of shared vision, and build confidence in creating sustained buy-in and alignment among those they lead.

• Healthy Conflict: We facilitate a conversation about healthy conflict, discuss typical sources of conflict, evaluate location on the conflict continuum, learn about entering the danger and speed of recovery, practice a conversational model for requesting change, and establish conflict norms to sustain the effort.

• Leading and Navigating Change: Change is external, transition is internal. How you work through the transition influences the effectiveness of the change process. This guided training provides a deeper understanding of the stages of transition and how to navigate them, with practical approaches and interactive discussion.

• Ideal Team Player: Recognize and cultivate the three virtues of ideal team players that drive long-term success. Identify and take ownership of the key behaviors for Humble, Hungry, and Smart team players, and contextualize them to your context.

• Strategic Planning: Consulting services for leaders/teams in need of strategic planning and strategic momentum for their team, organization, or initiative. Post-strategic planning support may include coaching for leaders with a focus on creating shared vision and buy-in.

• Cultural DNA: Cultural DNA consists of 3 things: your core purpose (why you exist; why your organization matters), your core values (your non-negotiable values that describe the behaviors you value most – and provide clarity on behaviors you won’t tolerate), and your core decision filters (the filters or criteria you use that guide all your most important decisions in line with your strategy). If you’re not intentional about building your cultural DNA, it could end up undermining your strategy and vision instead of supporting it. Once established, your cultural DNA cascades to support and reinforce stronger team culture.

• Rally Cry: A Rally Cry answers the question, “What’s most important, right now?” It provides a driving focus for specific objectives to be accomplished within a specified period of time (typically btwn. 3 – 9 months), and it keeps teams clear and aligned while driving progress through a dynamic and effective meeting approach. Once a Rally Cry is achieved, the next one is set, each serving as a basecamp towards the summit (your big future goal). 

• Organizational Health: First pioneered by leadership expert Patrick Lencioni in his best-selling book, The Advantage, Organizational Health (OH) is an approach now championed by organizations around the world as a fast and practical approach to reducing organizational politics and confusion while increasing organizational morale and productivity. The 4 Disciplines of OH include four simple but challenging steps any organization has to take to get healthy: 1) Build a behaviorally-cohesive leadership team focused on collective results. 2) Get them completely clear and aligned on the answers to six critical questions. 3) Overcommunicate that clarity throughout the organization. 4) Reinforce clarity through meetings and other human systems. Watch Patrick explain Organizational Health here. OH requires all-in commitment to growth and transformation.
